New Comment:
1) Use the add(), sub() or modify() DateTime methods for date math.
2) Adding months to dates on or after the 29th of the month is unreliable, as
you've found. When performing such operations, an advisable approach is
changing the date to the first day of the month, add or subtract the number of
months desired, than change the date to the last day of that month.

Description:
------------
I often use strtotime, I won't change my program anywhere.
+1 month -1 month maybe as expected
Test script:
---------------
date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime("-1 month", strtotime("2011-05-31 00:00:00")));
//2011-05-01 as expected
//2011-04-30 I Like
date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime("+1 month", strtotime("2011-05-31 00:00:00")));
//2011-07-01 as expected
//2011-06-30 I Like
date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime("-1 month", strtotime("2011-03-31 00:00:00")));
//2011-03-03 as expected
//2011-02-28 I Like
